Mount Sinai - Exodus 19

In the third month, when the children of Israel  were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came  they into the wilderness of Sinai. Exodus 19:1  KJV

Exodus 19:2 For they were  departed from Rephidim, and were come to the desert of  Sinai, and had pitched in the wilderness; and there Israel  camped before the mount. 

Exodus 19:3 And Moses went up unto  God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain,  saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell  the children of Israel; 

Exodus 19:4 Ye have seen what I did unto  the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles’ wings, and  brought you unto myself. 

Exodus 19:5 Now therefore, if ye will  obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall  be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the  earth is mine: 

Exodus 19:6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom  of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which  thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.  

Exodus 19:7 And Moses came and called for the elders of the  people, and laid before their faces all these words which the  LORD commanded him. 

Exodus 19:8 And all the people  answered together, and said, All that the LORD hath spoken  we will do. And Moses returned the words of the people  unto the LORD. 

Exodus 19:9 And the LORD said unto Moses,  Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the people may  hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee for ever. And  Moses told the words of the people unto the LORD.  

Exodus 19:10 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the  people, and sanctify them to day and to morrow, and let  them wash their clothes, 

Exodus 19:11 And be ready against the  third day: for the third day the LORD will come down in the  sight of all the people upon mount Sinai. 

Exodus 19:12 And thou  shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying, Take  heed to yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or  touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall  be surely put to death: 

Exodus 19:13 There shall not an hand  touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot through;  whether it be beast or man, it shall not live: when the  trumpet soundeth long, they shall come up to the mount.  

Exodus 19:14 And Moses went down from the mount unto the  people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their  clothes. 

Exodus 19:15 And he said unto the people, Be ready  against the third day: come not at your wives.    

Exodus 19:16 And it came to pass on the third day in the  morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a  thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet  exceeding loud; so that all the people that was in the camp  trembled. 

Exodus 19:17 And Moses brought forth the people out  of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether  part of the mount. 

Exodus 19:18 And mount Sinai was altogether  on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire:  and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace,  and the whole mount quaked greatly. 

Exodus 19:19 And when the  voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and  louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice. 

Exodus 19:20 And the LORD came down upon mount Sinai, on  the top of the mount: and the LORD called Moses up to  the top of the mount; and Moses went up. 

Exodus 19:21 And the  LORD said unto Moses, Go down, charge the people, lest  they break through unto the LORD to gaze, and many of  them perish. 

Exodus 19:22 And let the priests also, which come  near to the LORD, sanctify themselves, lest the LORD  break forth upon them. 

Exodus 19:23 And Moses said unto the  LORD, The people cannot come up to mount Sinai: for thou  chargedst us, saying, Set bounds about the mount, and  sanctify it. 

Exodus 19:24 And the LORD said unto him, Away,  get thee down, and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron  with thee: but let not the priests and the people break  through to come up unto the LORD, lest he break forth  upon them. 

Exodus 19:25 So Moses went down unto the people,  and spake unto them.
